The richness of their outfits and the conversation in the shadow of a big tree emphasizes the delight of being and living. The singing bird is a hymn to the Sun, the allegory of the spiritual light flowing from heaven. According to many traditions, the soul ascends to the Sun while trying to reach absolute enlightenment. The bird, for its lightness, free hovering and able to reach the sky, is a symbol of a human soul. The Tree is a symbol of Life itself. The Life energy flows through its trunk, feeding the Universe – “The Tree of Life.” According to ancient mythology, the Tree connected the Earthly life with the life in Heaven.
